I hope everyone is doing okay.

I took a couple days off and after some thought I’m not going to get paid or promoted staying here even though the supervisor has told me twice. Send me an email, hurry, where is it? Nothing has happened, but trust and having good relationships with others at work is important to me.

Volunteer work is a scam, you are not going to get anything out of it unless you really enjoy the cause doing something and giving up your time. I didn’t see it coming, but I went into month #7 of stress, long hours, and a performance of my expectations for “improvement?” It was humiliating despite receiving the result of “exceeded expectations”, put so much of myself, time, effort, and clashes with other to keep people outside of the department happy and others warm internally, it was me in the trenches, not them.

I’m going to continue in the trenches and subjecting myself to stress and it only opened up to haters. All of this just so that the people that I work next to on a daily basis don’t like me because I’m younger, innovative, and adapt to situations. Their old school mentality and being much older than I is a threat. I’m not the only one in the situation but all the younger co-workers that come after me. I’m doing 80% of the work and a threat. They should be happy I’m working and not complaining. I’m going to get tired if I continue to take on non-ending challenges and stick my neck out for these people and for what, only to get the short end of the stick anyway.

I’m a high performer, reviewer, and researcher. The only reward I have gotten is more work. These two women try to leave me stuck so I won’t venture out and advertise myself, network, and potentially get recruited elsewhere. I am good at what I do, reliable, and dependable. My expertise comes from actually doing real work. I’m the action type and a problem- solver and the other two get the credit doing nothing. I’ve been asked why there are people that have supervisor positions when they don’t know anything. It seems to be the pattern here, not sure. All the Best!
